Hi I am doing disk and brake up grade on my Celica st 20 and I asked advice from freaky parts they do a lot of brake conversion kits or parts and they advised me to have grooved they favour this as to drilled reason that drilled may after time show some cracking only small surface but groves don’t do this and groves will give better long life so I went for groves only. I feel they know what they are talking about and they were very helpful the website is freakyparts.co.uk tel 07977 503430 hope this helps
Thats correct grooved and dimpled is better. Drilled can crack and I have even had it myself

dunno what you are on about

Thought about this before. Would be a product that would def fill the gap in the market. Someone needs to design and make these

Agreed, don’t ever skimp on brakes or tyres. It depends on what you want. What model size etc. We need a lot more info before we can recommend anything. Search is your best friend, normally someone has asked the question before.

I have never seen this let alone knew it existed. Someone will do it just need time. its a rare sign

Unfortunately the outcome was kinda messy and I am not sure on the main piece right now but see how that ends up when it's fully dry.
Trying to get an even coat with a brush over semi-dried glue requires more practice. However, do have access to an old compressor which, if I can get working, might make the next attempt better.
On a seperate note, drove passed a Lexus SC with the same 3m Psychedlic wrap
Looking at alternative colours now.
Dude that looks epic! Please share your method!

The return line hose has internal diameter of 10mm. I used one of those brass hose joiner things and some clear tubing from b&q

My short shifter arrived Whoop!
Man that was an arse to fit. Went smoothly till I got to the spring / lock washer. then when I got it back together the interior plastics wouldn't sit right. No worries I made them fit
By time I was finished it was too dark to take a photo. Will wack some up tomorrow

I hoovered her out, Stripped all the plastics out in the back to tighten a nut on my light. whilst they were off I put a hole into then and fitted trim bits to make the hole pretty ready for the rear brace to be fitted tomorrow. I then reorganised my boot.
Oh and I got a free can of WD40. It was wedged between the inner and outer skin behind the alarm siren. looked like it had been there a while haha!
She is getting a wash tomorrow along with some prep ready for track in a couple of weeks.

Nothing wrong with bright lights as long as the head lights are adjusted properly and people using such bulbs like led and hid are upswing them with the correct type of light

Haha yep that be Adam. My best mate. Known him for years

Finally washed her. I have taken the front lip off to repaint as that is chipped to hell. She looks amazing even in the poor lighting. Will take some photos of her at the show tomorrow and use them on the build thread. She still needs some TLC but at least she is clean.
-
My sister had one kidney believe it or not. I will not be selling my body parts, any one wanna donate to a worthy cause?
Hopefully sort the bumper etc out tomorrow afternoon then Saturday she is getting a bath. She's been avoiding it the dirty git!
Once she is finally wash I can take some decent photos and start a build thread whoop!

yep realise today one of the tie rods holding my lip up has broken so the lip is drooping down. Need to get this sorted ASAP but Im so poor now I cant afford to do anything.

Yep I have had the car less than two weeks an I broke it whilst trying to park. The corner of the parking space was broken but I knew I could squeeze in. Unfortunately being new to the car I thought I was further over than I was. Whilst reversing I caught the bumper on the broken bit and it started to rip off. I stopped and moved over then checked out the damage. Will need a new wheel arch liner possibly if I cant repair it and the two broken mounting points on the bumper I can fix easy enough. Fortunately I was able to semi repair it with a 10mm spanner, a multi tool and a cable tie to keep me going till I can look at it.

catalytic converter and lambda sensors
in General Celica Discussion
Posted
One pre car and one post cat. They are different sensors if I remember correctly. Only get denso sensors. Don’t ever get cheat ones or universal. Save the money of having to keep changing them and get the decent sensor to begin with.
